This knob controls layer 1
This knob controls layer 2
This knob controls layer 3
This knob controls layer 4
This knob controls layer 5
This knob controls layer 6
This knob controls layer 7
This knob controls layer 8
This knob controls layer 9
This knob controls layer 10
This knob controls layer infiniti

So many layers
in my brilliant pop lofi music
With all these knobs
it's like I don't need a band

or maybe I can just make a 'super group' of ppl twisting knobs on stage
instead of having other bros playing boring ass instruments
like the hit band Animal Collective

I am a pop genius
I am Ariel Pink
ditching my band
hoarding all of the buzz dollars + appearance fees
'going solo'

becoming a knob-wave artist


Do yall <3 indie bands that 'play instruments'
or bands that press buttons and twist knobs?
Can Ariel Pink make AnCo obsolete in 2k11-2k20?

Tao Lin makes some girl marry him just to get internet press

Tao Lin is a 'Brooklyn-based' author/poet who is not known for the quality of his work, but instead 4 his 'internet gimmickry.' It seems like his latest gimmick to promote MDMA Films, some 'film project'/vlogging gimmick that he launched. There is also some random ass girl involved named Megan Boyle, but Tao is probably just going to 'use her up' and 'spit her out' once the meme train leaves town.

In order to get press, they decided 2 'get married' but no1 really cares abt their happiness.

Here is some film where they go to a chapel and Vegas 2 get married. There is some 'priest' who presides over the ceremony, and they just filmed it via Macbook.

Do u think they are 'really married'?
Are they just trying to get the internet's attention?
Is Tao Lin capable of 'true love'?
Do u think Megan Boyle thinks that Tao really loves her, except he is just gonna move on 2 a new project with a new broad in the next 1-2 years?
Do u 'care' or do u feel 'whatever' abt this marriage/MDMA Films?
Is Tao Lin 'past his prime'? Should he just focus on getting a mainstream job + starting a family with his wife? Do u think they can evr have 'real jobs' if they just sit around, doing drugs, and filming themselves?
